Mr. Jacob Sheetz has taken out license
TO open bar at the Murray House. 1t is
thought that he will soon take out another
license and 60 into partnership with one
O the family. At least, that is the way
former bar keeper did, and we suppose II
will hold good IN this case, too.

The temperance meeting held in the
Disciples church on Tuesday evening was
well attended and notwithstanding the
absence Of one of the speakers, the audi
ence seemed agreeably entertained. The
reading and recitations were well execut-
ed and short lecture on temperance
given by Rev. d. II. Rhodes was enjoyed
by all.
Mr. William Miller, Of Luray, Page
county. Va. arrived here on Saturday,
spent pleasant Sunday with his many
friends. and returned home on Monday.
We hope he will make it convenient to
pay another and longer visit IN the near
future.

cant bread, cakes, pies, &c, we are con-
stantly turning out. Everything fresh
Not stale article is allowed to be offered

preciate our honest and earnest efforts to

H. A. Whissen & Bro.
Two young gentlemen Of this place,
we'll known as lady killers, as well as
being way mp in other hoop-la accomplish
ments, went to Mt. Jackson on Saturday
night last, to attend the festival at that
place. After spending some very happy
hours and growing greatly confused by
the ice-cream lights and sly glances from
beautys eyes, they went back to the hotel
after their team TO return home. The
hostler having retired they were forced
TO hitch up themselves. This they did,
returning home in fine style. But the
next morning they were terribly set back
10 find that they had gotten the wrong
harness and carriage. This caused another
trip to Mt. Jackson to correct mistakes.
1t was not as pleasant as the other. Fred.
saws it is a wonder that they even succeed
ed in getting their own horses after the
way two certain ladies dazed them with
the bright flashes Of their darling eye.
It does us good to show our superb
stock Of groceries Just the fullest and
best ever offered here. It will also do you
good to buy them. Not only because
prices are 80 very low, way down there,
but because of the splendid quality Of
the article we offer you. Come Every
man, woman, child and baby come You
will never regret it.

On last Saturday evening Mr.. Jos. F..
Hoffman and Henry Wightman hooked
IN Mr.. Holtzman's double team, and in
company with Mrs. Dr. Fred. Hisey, Mrs.
c. p. Hisey, Miss Laura Hisey and Miss
Anna Werman, started for Mt. Jackson
to attend the festival at that place
Everything passed as Derrily and smooth
ly as lovers makeup after quarrel, un-
til they reached point several miles above
this place, when, as they were going down
a steep hill the king bolt of the wagon
broke, dropping the front on the horses
heels, and playing smash generally. Joe
Holtznan and Hen Wightman were pitch
cd forward on their heads under the horses
heels, making a most remarkable escape,
while the rest Of the party were piled MP
very promiscuously all around. When
the gentlemen reused up to realization
of things around them they found one Of
the horses on the opposite side of the fence
the other in the road but still hooked up
to the pole. Things were righted up, and
they sent back to town for another vehi-
Gle in which the party completed the trip
On their return the horses were found tC
be pretty badly cut and strained, so much
so that they could hardly get home. The
report of the accident reached Moore'
Store, and brought young physical an il
great haste to see one of the young ladiel
on Sunday evening. He cured her com
, pletely.
